I live close to Youngstown (where jim Tressel coached prior to OSU) and still hate them. Is that wrong?

Yeah man its okay. I can't criticize you anyway. People give me the evil eye when I say I'm from cleveland area (born and raised) but I love the Steelers. You can't be forced to love your hometown team. Funny thing though is that I like Indians and Cavs, just absolutely hate the Browns. Living in Columbus now (and since I am an OSU alum) naturally the Buckeyes are my team for college. As for hockey, Blue Jackets are tough to root for although i try, but I still have a soft spot for the Penguins because I was a huge Jagr fan, he was breaking in right when I started liking hockey.

back in 94, I was waiting out in line outside of three rivers stadium waiting for playoff tickets to see the Steelers kill the browns, then lose a heartbreaker to San Diego, and Kevin Green pulled up outside with his half-size pickup, filled with pizzas. He talked with us for a while and emptied his truck with the pizzas. How anyone can not like a guy like that is beyond me.

Great story! To me, Kevin Greene personified what a Steeler is.

Kind of a bigger, friendlier version of Jack Lambert. If I needed 2 body guards & I could pick any 2 Steelers, those 2 would be it.
